Evaluating Wheels

Before getting caught up in the romantic notion of owning a piece of historic horse-drawn equipment, the first time buyer should become educated in what constitutes a 'good buy.'  Evaluating Wheels is designed to offer preliminary advice from master wheelwright, Dave Engel, as to what to look for in the wheels before you buy that first vehicle.

Building Traditional Light Wheels

Some of you folks would love to build your own wheels and this will be of help, actually seeing the step by step process. And you don’t have to sign up for a class or leave home! Others of you would merely just like to be in the shop while wheels are being built, just to see how it works, but there are just too many miles between us. This is the tape for you both. Books are great, but you know what they say? “A picture is worth a thousand words!”
